[ancientblade]

We’ve won one and then drew now it’s time for a loss against Wrexham that’s the way it looks to me

I wasn't going to go on Friday, late, on the telly etc. and we aren't that good. Fortunately I had already booked, months ago, tickets for a show and so cant go anyway. No doubt I will get a letter from the club enquiring why I haven't gone. The reality is the clubs have sold their soul to Sky, the product is getting worse and ordinary fans simply aren't important anymore.

not only games being on sky our fans are staying away in droves because of the tactics and our slow boring play

 

[Matlock Blade]

We have season tickets, but won't be going on Friday. It's already money spent and wasted. The club lied when they claimed we were going for a rebuild to get us to spend our money on season tickets.

I'm going because October 30th will be the 55th Anniversary of my first ever match. It seems like the right thing to do.

Perhaps they meant the roof

Wilder has always had that thing where he's convinced that he can get a tune out of players who others have discarded,given up on for various reasons,past their sell by date and he's tried bringing in players like that, usually in the January window,and to be fair he's had some success with them,but a large part haven't come off.
The thing is that he's always had enough quality players in the squad that it didn't make any difference if they didn't come off,this season he's not got that safety net,and he's gone all in for that type of player again partly due to the circumstances off the pitch,but he's backed himself and his judgement and brought almost a whole squad of them,so now he's going to have to prove he can get a tune out of them for a whole season,and it looks like it's going to be a long up and down haul before we know he's right or wrong.

Liverpool 1-1

Liverpool 1-1

Correct - Currie for United, Keegan for Liverpool. Two more iconic scorers it would be hard to think of for each team.

October 28 1961 was the 1st game I remember. 2-2 against Fulham. May have gone earlier but I don’t remember it. My dad told me I was watching Johnny Haynes the England captain which is why I remember it. So it’s my 60th anniversary. I doubt I’ll be going. Sad really. I hope you enjoy it and we get a win. Beer and a curry with the wife preferable at the moment.

The owners& Wilder knew it was a load of bolloxs they were spouting near the end of last season regarding the rebuild, your spot on, it was to get money in through season ticket sales, the lying bastards!

Liverpool 1-1

Just seen the video of the game - what a strike by TC!

 

[CarlMcBlade]

With all those US eyeballs on the game on Friday. We’ll no doubt reprise our role as the nondescript Washington Generals and make Disney FC look like the Harlem fucking Globetrotters.

Obviously can't say I know what will happen. But Wrexham are not in sparkling form. Last season at the lane they were pushing for top 6. That's not currently happening for them yet. Pressure is slightly on Parkinson.

Its been said to death but all being well we start Donovan and Peck. (Arblaster did do Ok Vs Bristol city) I'd start Seriki of course too if he's able to do the minutes.
Do this and we should be looking at taking the game to Wrexham.

Cooper, Choudhury/Seriki, Tanganga, Kitching, McCallum, Chong, Peck, Phillips, Donovan, Bamford (If fit), Cannon/BBD

Liverpool 1-1

In those days (1971) my ST was in the relatively new BLUT with my Dad , who'd been told by Mum that his days on the Kop were over , if he wanted their precious son to be a Blade.
We had a fabulous view of one of the best goals TC ever scored at the Lane , barring the one John Motson labelled a 'QG by a QP'

Plus the idea they spun about the Souttar offer and him returning, it was all a bit fishy

Why would you get a letter for not attending, you have paid good money for that seat to be " entertained " its not your fault we are playing shite lump it / kick n run football thats as boring as fuck to watch.
I'd seriously think about a strong letter about the reasons your not attending being sent to the club.
Cheeky Cunts

Liverpool 1-1

My second season

My first was …. Well , we all know that

What a goal from TC

Friday will be the only home game I miss this season because I’ll be flying home from Copenhagen and Sky are cunts. It doesn’t matter how bad things get, I’ll always be there because supporting a team playing in red & white stripes at Bramall Lane is the closest thing to permanence I’ve had in my life and that has been the case for almost 60 years.

Having said that, I don’t blame anyone for choosing not to go. Everyone has different circumstances, not everyone has my 25 minute journey to the Lane and for many money is very tight with Christmas on the horizon. Also, the quality on display at the moment is inexcusably shite. I’ll still go but I’m not going to pretend the match itself is an enjoyable experience, and it hasn’t been for a few years now. Thankfully I know that at some point that will change, because everything does eventually. That’s where the hope lies, and until then I’ll tough it out.

the winner against leeds in the league cup is my favourite tc goal we battered em that night

 

[Aston max]

The thought of Wilder being in charge when the next transfer window is upon us scares the crap out of me, same too if he has any say in contract negotiations. We really do need to get rid of Wilder before December to give a new manager time to see what we need and who we don't need.

This

i can see us being down to 16/17k season ticket holders next season unless theres a change of manager or theres a vast improvement in our style of play before the end of the season
